Abstract:Mississippi’s roadway system is vital to the state’s economy. As time passes, new and/or improved roadways will be needed in order to attract and hold industry. Hot mix asphalt constitutes the material used to construct and maintain the vast majority of roadways in Mississippi. However, not all hot mix asphalt mixtures perform the same. The objective of this project was to develop guidance for hot mix asphalt mix selection in Mississippi. Three primary mix types were considered and included: dense-graded hot mix asphalt, stone matrix asphalt and open graded friction courses. Recommended guidance was developed and presented for when certain mix types should be used on Mississippi roadways. Recommendations were provided based upon the pavement layer and traffic category being considered.
